Do not feel bad for waiting to go to school. Sinc e you are older, you are more mature, work harder, study harder, and you know what you want. It is okay to change your mind. Hang in there and dont give up.

Do not take this year lightly. Yes you are going to be valedictorian but stil, you need to push ypurself. Have fun and stop sweating the little things. Events are going to happen and it is going to throw you for a loop and knock you down. Get back up and keep going. Great things are waiting for you at college. So keep your smkle high for everyone to see and prove to them that you can do this. Also change what you wore for your panal picture, it was not attractive at all. And don't let the normal person you let do your hair because she ends up making your hair look orange. Good luck and see you soon.

I would tell myself to go and live on campus. I go tothe Bartlesville campus and live at home. I sometimes fill left out of the college experience.

Willard

I would tell myself to develop better study techniques, and to be more open to others.

Ariel

I would tell myself not to get so hung up on finding a major right away. So much time during my high school career was spent stressing about my major and now, having been in school for a while, I can say that the stress was unnecessary. I would tell myself that it's okay to be undecided and to first find out where your passion lies and go from there.

Leah

I would have told myself to relax a bit more and also nab as many easy A's as possible in addition to picking up Physics.

Curtis

If i could go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior i would tell my self to save money, study harder, and apply for scholarships. Saving money is extremely important to pay towards school, living, gas and food on a daily basis in college. Studying harder and getting the absolute best grades possible will make college, scholarship applications and classes much easier. Applying for all scholarships available will make college cheaper and the earlier you apply the longer you have to apply for more and more. With all of this in mind, Study the hardest possible and then some, save every penny you can, and apply for scholarships so college can be an even better expieremce than you already expected!

Caitlin

Do my homework. I could have gotten into honors if I had just sucked it up and did my homework. I would just get bored with the work because it wasn't challenging me enough. I really regret it. Also, keeping with my original plan and not listening to what others said. I could be done with my degree, but I went into a different feild to make my family happy. I really enjoy the feild I am in now. It drives me to do better, and it always inspires me to accomplish and learn new things.

Sarai

If there was some advice I could give the me in high school, it would be to really push through my basic classes because even though most of them are awful, they still count. I would tell me to try harder.

Heather

Be prepared to do your very best and make the most of your college years. Set an obtainable goal and stay focused on it. Don't set your goals too high as you will be setting yourself up for failure.
